July 2018 Bar Examination Test Sites

In accordance with Board Rule 6000.8 applicants shall be assigned to
a test center in one of the four judicial departments located in New
York State. Test center assignments will be based on availability
and a first come,
first serve basis and no applicant is guaranteed a seat in any
particular city or test center, even if the applicant lives or
attended law school in that city. All applicants will receive an
email sometime after the application period closes and they will be
required to select and confirm their seat location. First-time
applicants who graduate with a Juris Doctor degree from a New York
State law school will be given the first opportunity to select a
seat assignment. Only locations
with available seats will be listed in the email. Once a location is
filled, it will no longer appear in the list of locations in the
email. If your preferred location does not appear in the email you
must select from the locations that are available. Please do not
call the Board's office - we will not maintain a waiting list for
any location.
